Bright lights, big city
So my future lies behind this LJ cut...
Oh my, what have I gotten myself into? I've somehow managed to land an internship for the summer at one of the top PR agencies in the nation, located in the heart of Chicago. I only have the good graces of God to thank for this. I don't know what I'll be doing but hopefully it'll involve more than fetching lattes for the entire office on a daily basis.
I'm excited. I'm scared. I'm anxious and relieved at the same time. The sense anticipation is the same as right before I left for Italy, but this is different. I wonder what living in the city will be like? Will I meet cool new people? Will everyone at home forget about me? I say I'm ready for a change but sometimes I wonder if I need more time. I think about this kind of stuff a lot.
I guess ultimately what I'm hoping for is a job offer after the internship is over. I don't want to get my expectations up though. I know advertising is a hard industry to break into but it's either my naive optimism or inflated self-esteem that makes me believe I can make it.
Soon I'll be ending one chapter and beginning a new one...
...growing up is scary.
